The game is too short for $5, but with that length (30 minutes) I enjoyed the game. Will be worth it for those who REALLY enjoy Fighting Fantasy games.
Nothing really splendid, but it's entertaining with a tongue in the cheek manner. Still it refuses to run on Xperia J, BTW.
Loved these style books in my youth. This app does not disappoint if you are a fan of these type of books.
Do more fighting fantasy books! i will buy 'em all... I loved these back in the day, and the automated dice, inventory, bookmarks, etc all work great. Would love to see the underwater one redone - demons of the deep!
Beautifully presented, fun game dynamics and good level of challenge. It took me a while to find that last pesky zombie! I have all of these games and I want more!
I installed the game from google play onto my Android TV box in order to play it on the TV, but the air mouse doesn't work with this game for some reason. Is there a solution to this problem?
I agree with both the disappointed reviews about the difficulties but the format and style brings joy to my hearts content. It can only get better from now. Great job!
I hope a zombie kill total counter could be included in an update
Awesome make your own adventure books I read as a kid now on Android and with interactions!! EPIC choice story series!!!
Good game, enjoyed these books as a youngster. Putting in some spoiler space ....................._zzzzzzzz__zzzzzz .ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ........... MMMMMM ZOMBIES...... . . After collecting $102, I have been unable to give 100 to Reznik. I can see the money on my adventure sheet but the option to give him the money is not selectable.
This is an amazing game. Please make more games like this one! Great job!
Absolutely amazing! Great story!
Outstanding. Love it
The first game I played on a mobile platform that I would actually recommend to gamers as a "must have" was Fantasy Flight's Elder Sign. It's been 6 months and I've finally found a second set of games worth recommendation. Tin Man Games game books, be it a Fighting Fantasy port or one of their Gamebook Adventures are great.
This app is a mixed bag, and pretty overpriced in many respects. It is faithful to the original, with the added bonus of having an automated Adventure Sheet. Plus, the music and artwork are pretty good, showing a lot of polish. However, the story still has the problems of the original - it is very linear. The target audience for this app is people who are already fans of the format, who probably already own this title as an actual book. As such, despite being a good app, it is ultimately overpriced.
Don't forget to bookmark those vital pages, don't you remember holding a page with a finger whilst looking at the options? :) A great 'on the phone' implementation of a classic style of book based entertainment. Many a happy childhood hour spent with Fighting Fantasy.
I never knew reading could make such a fun game. The writing lets you imagine yourself in this world. Very fun. The bookmark feature is very helpful.
The story and the writing is dull, and so is the overall structure of the book. Not a patch on some of the old classics, and this isn't just nostalgia speaking.
This is great . the only thing i Don't like is the way its doubled in price in the last week . Playing this on a DGM T-909
Another reanimated classic from Tin Man Games. Looking forward to more of the series, fingers crossed for Creature of Havoc.
Perfect for those who like reading, but want some action too. Far more entertaining that those farm games or other freemium money suckers.
bot good I purchased all the game books at a high price and there all gone how do I restore my purchases and you put the game books I already purchased in another app and there locked to me and I made attempts to contact you about this twice before and now that I'm trying to use my purchases they don't work, and gate keepers oath don't work at all ,how can anyone support this company if there going to sell you something that doesn't work after you buy it in the future,, I see this happeningalot
